There is always hope for the future...
Remember, not even Reagan was blessed with both a Republican Senate and House for long...it's just the nature of things...and yet he accomplished much throughout both his terms...even if some argue not much was accomplished in his second.
Of course there is. But it the combination of things that climaxed tonight does not change, it will be a long time before Republicans gain the House back.
Republicans, from Bush on down, need to go strongly to conservative values. And the cut and run voters? They are immature, cowardly, selfish little punks.
Oh, and as far as Reagan's second term not accomplishing much? His speech of 1987 at the WALL was one of turning points of history. If he had done nothing else, THAT was more than most Presidents do in their entire time in office.
And Reagan NEVER abandoned his conservative values.
